Praised as a “gift to the listening public” (New York Times), the Fellows of The Academy perform works from across the centuries, from Elizabethan-era brass music to an evocative work by maverick American composer Steve Reich, who makes use of the actual recorded sounds of the modern city.
The Academy is made possible by a leadership gift from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
Major funding has also been provided by Mercedes and Sid Bass, The Kovner Foundation, Martha and Bob Lipp, The Peter Jay Sharp Foundation, The William and Flora Hewlett Foundation, Judith and Burton Resnick, Susan and Elihu Rose, and Mr. and Mrs. Lester S. Morse Jr., with additional support from the Ella Fitzgerald Charitable Foundation, The Dana Foundation, Suki Sandler, and The William Petschek Family.
Ensemble ACJW performances are supported, in part, with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts.
